Jason and Travis Kelce are living the dream. While many dream of making it to the league, the sibling duo has not only done that but also made quite a name for themselves. As the TE and center have big games lined up ahead of them, the NFL world awaits their potential face-off with bated breath.
Both brothers have seen immense success this season. While this is something to be proud of, they have put their parents in a very tough situation. What could possibly go wrong with children who are playing at the highest level of the sport? Here’s what the duo’s parents are concerned about.

After hearing what Jason and Travis Kelce’s parents had to say about their sons, it’s not hard to imagine what their childhood must’ve looked like. The competitive duo is gearing up to set the NFL world ablaze this week with important games on the line. Chiefs TE Travis Kelce will take on the Bengals in the AFC conference championship. On the other hand, his brother will take on the 49ers alongside the Eagles in their NFC championship game.
Fox 8 reporter P.J Ziegler interviewed proud parents Ed and Donna Kelce. While watching their sons play in their respective conference finals may be the manifestation of their dreams, they have one dilemma to deal with. The games are set to take place with a few hours in between them in separate cities. Will the Kelces have to pick a favorite child to support in person? Last year Donna Kelce hopped from Tampa Bay to Kansas City to catch both her sons’ games. But this time around, her travel plans have been brought down by a significant notch. The Kelce parents will head to Lincoln Financial Field to support Eagles center Jason Kelce, having watched their younger son’s game the previous week. But the nagging question remains, should their children face each other in the Super Bowl, will the parents be picking sides?

Speaking of a potential face-off, Donna Kelce was concerned about the repercussions of the result. She said, “It’s your hopes and dreams coming true, but it’s your worst fears. Somebody is going to go home a loser, and neither one of them lose very well.” Her husband jokingly added that the brothers’ offensive positions rule out a potential fistfight on the field.
